Big Scottish Breakfast

The Pupil Council organised a scrumptious morning with our friends and families. We enjoyed a Big Breakfast together with fruit salad, yogurt, toast, cereal, fruit juice, milk and pancakes all on the menu.  A big thanks to our supportive parents for all the food donations and the money we’ll be sending to the STV Children’s appeal. 

I liked sitting with my mum and eating breakfast because she normally has breakfast once I’m at school. 

I enjoyed eating my pancakes.  I was happy they got toasted by Mrs Hamilton.

I liked sitting with my friends and chatting.  I especially liked the jam and the juice. 

I liked having toast because i don’t normally have toast. 

I enjoyed having new combinations of food….. toast, butter, fruit and yogurt was delicious.  

I enjoyed sitting with my friend’s parents. 

I tried new cereal and I really enjoyed it.  I’m going to ask my mum to buy some. 

I liked trying new food with honey. 

I liked helping the nursery eat their food. 

We hope the money raised goes to help children in poverty.

Entertainers Visit

Our current learning theme is ‘Entertainment’.

We had entertainers visiting our school and talking to us about their work in the entertainment industry.  We heard about how you sometimes face setbacks but you have to be determined  if you want something to work.  They also talked to us about perseverance when you are trying to learn a new skill.  We heard about their different jobs as actors in theatres, as writers creating shows and as directors helping other actors perform. 

 

We enjoyed and learned many things….

I enjoyed doing the spinning plates because it was funny trying to start it off and I enjoyed the juggling because it was hard.  I learned that It doesn’t work the first time so you shouldn’t give up.

I enjoyed blowing bubbles inside other bubbles.  I learned that you can get gigantic bubble blowers.

I learned that you can blow bubble into bubble once they’re formed. I loved the bubble volcano because I thought it was interesting how they floated out.

I enjoyed the juggling with the harder balls.  I learned that blowing into the bubbles is really not that hard. 

I enjoyed playing with the ribbons because the ribbons were all different colours and it made me feel like it was a rainbow.  I learned that you don’t have to go to university to be an entertainer but you can if you want to.

I enjoyed getting the bubble hat because it popped when the bubbles fell on it.  I learned that bubbles can never be squares unless you trap them.

Each week we count up all the house points.  These points can be earned for many different reasons.  It’s very exciting to see which house will win each week and is a true display of all the hard work, kindness, effort and fun the pupils have given all week.

Term 1 Winning House is…… KINTYRE

Sometimes we have extra house challenges to win even more points!

So far we have had a house identity challenge, with some excellent rapping performances, and a playground game challenge.  What will they come up with next??

One week was all about SLIME!!!

We worked in our houses and took turns when we were making the slime.  We wrote down slimey words.  Finally, we made a big slime 30 as part of Mrs Martin’s birthday celebrations.
